JConcepts re-release the T4.3 Finnisher body

JConcepts is bringing back the Finnisher style stadium truck body shell for the T4.3 Qualifier Series vehicle by Team Associated. The body has been updated to include pre-dimpled locations for the body mounts and the the slight cab forward, raked windshield and aggressive stance highlight a performance oriented core. A revised front hood scoop allows plenty of clearance for the unique geometry while smoothing out the front down force area. Front chin spoiler, headlight and grill protect the front-end from unwanted up-drafts during flight while the supplied decals stand-out like an 18 wheeler. The body comes clear, including window masks and decal sheet and it fits the T4.3 and T4.1 trucks but, from what is understood, not the T4.2 due to the truck’s different front suspension setup.

JConcepts YZ-2 DTM Punisher 2 body shell

Coming from JConcepts and made for the Yokomo YZ-2 DTM is the Punisher 2 body shell. The lid takes design elements of both the S2 and F2 bodies and sports a raised nose/hood section, taller cab and rear end force features. The sidepods are once again “JC chamfered” to provide that legendary look and the secondary window screams JConcepts styling. The cab drops off quickly and runs deep toward the rear giving plenty of drift to the newly added winglets. The tall, rear fin stabiliser acts as a vane to keep the buggy tracking in the proper direction while also maintaining a rigid roof-line even with lightweight materials. The package is available as standard or lightweight variant, arrives complete with two Aero S-type wings as used by Ryan Maifield to claim the 2017 IFMAR World Championship.
